Description

Without an informed public and evidence of how stupidly and often illegally they acted and probably still do some politicians about the events and state of water supply and water management in the Czech Republic, no remedy can be found in the interests of citizens. That is why we are solving the first step in remediation - documenting how the sale of water in the region got into the hands of concerns and what negative consequences it has for citizens and municipalities. We will use the Act on Free Access to Information and the Act on Municipalities + the Constitution of the Czech Republic - THE RIGHT TO EXPRESS YOURSELF to obtain information. Above all, we want to provide evidence and make it available to citizens, local and later top politicians in the form of data journalism. Subsequently to open to the events and the state around the water public discussion, activate the public - the signing of the petition.
If the required number of signatures can be collected - submit the problem to the legislator for a solution. We want to gradually achieve the amendments to the Constitution of the Czech Republic - GUARANTEE OF THE RIGHTS OF PEOPLE TO WATER Citizens, municipalities and the state will benefit. Citizens will only pay for what they really need. Municipalities and the state will have everything around water and its management in their hands
